#greenscreen rate check friday!! As of last week, rates were showing some signs of resilience, but they had to wait for the true test from this week’s jobs report. Spoiler alert: they passed the test. It wasn’t that the headline job count was particularly low, but it wasn’t strong enough to argue against the fact that the labor market has cooled off compared to the first half of the year, or that 2024 is much cooler than 2023. The simplest way to visualize the cooling is via this chart of the unemployment rate. #interestrates #lowinterestrate #mortgage #mortgagetips
